Pete's Place in Glenwood Springs, Colorado

Boasting an abundance of exciting activities and opportunities for adventure, it's very clear why this spectacular Colorado destination was named ‘The Most Fun Town in America’ by Rand McNally and USA Today. Geological wonders, including hot springs, caves, lakes and canyons, miles of hiking/biking trails, provide the perfect backdrop for your next mountain getaway!

THE PROPERTY

Experience the best of Glenwood Springs by staying at this pristine 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom vacation rental home, nestled on one private acre in the beautiful Rocky Mountains right on Four Mile Creek.

Invite your entire family and even a few friends to come along for the trip, as this spacious residence can comfortably accommodate up to 8 guests!

On those cold winter nights, curl up by the gas fireplace with a hot cup of cocoa and admire the snow blanketed landscape outside.

THE LOCATION

You certainly won’t have a shortage of incredible scenery at this house! Situated in a picturesque valley, you can gaze endlessly at the panoramic views of the surrounding hills while you listen to the soothing sounds of Four Mile Creek.

Even though this property is set back from all the action, it's conveniently only 10 minutes away from town, where you'll find numerous eclectic boutiques and excellent restaurants. Some local favorites include Juicy Lucy’s Steakhouse, Colorado Ranch Restaurant, Glenwood Canyon Brewery, The Riviera Restaurant, and The Pullman.

Just 5 minutes away from the property is Sunlight Ski Resort, where you'll find adventure at 7,900 feet elevation! In the winter, enjoy world-class downhill skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and cross country skiing. If your kids are new to the slopes, the resort offers exceptional lesson packages for a great value.

During the summer months, tour the area on horseback or mountain bike. To access unparalleled sights and wildlife, hike through the Glenwood Canyon and Rio Grande Trails. Make sure you add Hanging Lake to your trip’s to-do list! A marvel of Mother Nature, this trail features a mesmerizing turquoise lake, waterfall, and breathtaking scenery. Fishermen will be delighted at the renowned fishing in Roaring Fork and Crystal Rivers.

For those adrenaline seekers in your group, you'll find numerous nearby opportunities for some thrilling rock climbing, whitewater rafting, ATV riding, or paragliding. If you're in the mood for a thoroughly relaxing experience, look no further than Glenwood Hot Springs Pool, the world’s largest mineral hot springs pool, located just minutes from this home and complete with a 102-degree therapy pool, water slides, lounge chairs, and a poolside restaurant.

This ideal destination truly offers fun for the whole family! The kids will love taking a day trip to Glenwood Adventure Park and Tram, followed by a dinner show at Glenwood Vaudeville Revue.

Aspen, Snowmass, Carbondale, and Redstone are not too far away either, should you find yourself wanting to venture outside of Glenwood Springs. In the fall, be sure to visit the Maroon Bells in Aspen to witness the stunning Aspen trees changing colors.

Wonderful Property with Beautiful views

We had an absolute amazing time in Glenwood at this property. It was clean, well maintained, and very easy to get to from Glenwood. The view was so beautiful from the deck and was a wonderful place to stay. We would definitely book here again!

Great house

This is a real find for anyone who is looking for a nice house next to a beautiful stream. The host is great. We found the house stocked with the little things like coffee and filters, wrapping paper and a bunch of other things that make little sense to buy if you only spend a few days.

Almost 5-star

Great Location. Great outdoor spaces. Great living area and kitchen. Fully stocked with everything you need (dishes, blankets, pots and pans, appliances, etc). This is a well appointed property. However, the property needs a deep cleaning and the carpet replaced. We’ve stayed at a lot of VRBO’s over the years and this was not at the normal level of cleanliness.

Worth the short drive out of town!

My family stayed at Pete's Place for 3 nights in July and loved it. The extra space for the teens was great, the outside deck space was fantastic. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable! Highly recommend taking the short drive out of town to this private relaxing space!

Fantastic VRBO!

Our family of 5 (two adults, three small kids) had a great time! The house is located nicely outside of town where it is quite and relaxing, but still within in a quick drive to get things or go anywhere. Plus, it is a very short distance to Sunlight. The layout is very nice, the kitchen is the best stocked we have experienced, gas fire places very cozy, beds extremely comfortable! 5 Star in our review. Property owners are very responsive and friendly as well!

This was a wonderful home for our family’s weekend getaway to Glenwood Springs. The home is beautifully decorated, well stocked with all you would need over a weekend & had a cozy feel to it. There were even towels available for us to use at the hot springs! The creek side setting was so peaceful & we loved going out on the beautiful deck to enjoy our morning coffee and relax.

Fly Fishing Slam

We got together with our grown sons and fly fished the Roaring Fork and Frying Pan Rivers as well as some spring creeks. Fishing was killer. It was so nice to return to the rental property and relax, have a drink and make dinner. We really liked the peaceful location and the well eqipped kitchen. Had a flock of wild turkeys walk through the property.
